Thank you for your prayer support!
Monthly prayer focusWe are asking all our SK Conference churches to light their Harvest Saskatchewan candle the first Sunday of each month and spend time in prayer on the monthly theme during the service. October’s prayer focus is . . . “To ask God for more workers for the harvest.” (Matthew 9:37) |

The harvest beckons!
On this Thanksgiving weekend, we pause to give thanks for the harvest and we pray for many who still face the urgency of completing the harvest. We also need to pause to give thanks for the spiritual harvest but we must realize that there still is a huge amount of harvesting that remains. Pray for more workers for the harvest (Matthew 9:37-38). Ask God to give you a willingness to do some harvesting for Him.
50th harvest year for West Portal!
Today we also invite you to rejoice with West Portal Church in Saskatoon as they celebrate 50 years of ministry. Praise God for the faithfulness of this congregation that has reaped a good harvest through two church planting endeavors at Living Hope and Faith River.

Pray also for a corporate renewed spirit of gratitude not only within the Herbert congregation but also within each of our SK Conference churches.

Pray for the Harvest Saskatchewan Team as they meet on Wednesday and for the Provincial Executive Board meeting on Saturday. Give thanks and pray for our Moderator, Ron Dyck, who volunteers so much of his own time to ministry within the Saskatchewan and Canadian Conferences.
